Marc McGinnes

Marc McGinnes is a founder of the Environmental Defense Center who served as the organization’s first attorney. His deep connection to environmental work in Santa Barbara also led him to teach environmental law and other courses over a more than 30 year career.

For me gratitude brings the greatest bliss I know, and in this state I recall the birth of the Environmental Defense Center in 1977, forty years ago, and the work that began in 1969 that led to its creation.
